Whiskey/Bourbon/Value of unopened bourbon

QuestionI was recently offered a full unopened case of "old Lancaster" bourbon pint bottles. They have the original metal lids and are in the original case. I was wondering if you might know the value of each bottle or the full case. I am wondering if it is worth buying or not. I believe they are 1913

AnswerHi Armando:

Generally, no whiskey gains value over the years.

Once bottled, the aging process stops.

So...This is NOT a high level distillation.

I'm thinking you add up the total volume and match it to something like Jim Beam if you have a real need to have these old bottles.

Expertise

Whiskey, or Whisky only please.
Any questions regarding the distilling and consuming of Whiskey: rye, bourbon, or scotch.
Wines and Brandy are out of my area.
I can not value old bottles of whiskey. But generally, if you can find something similar on sale today, and your bottle seal is unbroken, that would be the current value.
